LIVE! with Cathi---Holiday Lasting Memories

"Backward turn backward O time in your flight, make me a child again just for tonight!'

In my mind's eye, I see it so clearly.  Christmas was always a festive holiday while growing up.  Pa Paun, my father always got up at 4:30 a.m. to start the furnace and Ma Paun, my  mothers would get up shortly after Pa and begin her Christmas Baking...bread, jelly doughnuts, strudel cakes and I would be in the dining room playing with my cut-out dolls.  Ah, the aroma, the fragrance, the memories.

Many of us have lasting memories from our childhood holidays.  Many memories are tied to traditions that get passed down for generations and the mere practice today stirs emotions.

According to the experts, memories are cemented not because of WHAT we do but HOW we do it.  It's about how we share experiences together.
